FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is related to a pharmaceutical composition of biphenyl benzamide-derived derivatives, the synthesis and the application thereof, especially related to the application of treating inflammatory reaction, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and cancer.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In the bone regeneration process, once the balance of the bone remodeling is broken, the bone resorption of the osteoclasts is dominated over bone formation of the osteoblasts, the bone remodeling would be imbalanced. As a result, the osteocytes would decrease, osteopenia or bone mineral density decrease to induce lots of bone disease, such as osteoporosis, periodontitis or osteoarthritis.

The osteoclasts origins from hematopoietic precursor cells. Further, the Macrophage-Colony Stimulating Factor (M-CSF) secreted by osteoblast and Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa B Ligand (RANK. L) would combine with the c-Fms and RANK on the cell membrane of the osteoclast precursor cells, and induce the secretion of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), integrin b3 expression, and actin ring formation, etc. These changes of protein activity and cell morphology would enhance the osteoclasts motility and help the osteoclasts adhere on the bone surface. On the other hand, the expression of cathepsin K matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP), ATPase, H+ transporting lysosomal V0 subunit D2(ATP6V0D2) would induce the osteoclast precursor cells differentiate into a hung matured (diameter is 20-100 mm) multinucleated cells (MNCs) (containing 4-20 nucleus), which also have the bone resorption function.

The osteoblasts would secret M-CSF and RANKL, which induce the osteocytes growth and differentiation, and would also secret the osteoprotegerin (OPG). OPG would associate with RANKL to prevent the association of RANKL and RANK, so as to prevent the formation of osteoclasts and inhibit the formation of osteoclasts, to decrease the bone resorption; besides, OPG would involve in the osteoclast apoptosis.

The following examples is the activity of compounds 1 to 24 of the examples 1 to 24:

EXAMPLE 25 The Pharmacological Activity Test and Result

The compounds 1 to 24 of the present invention is tested by three pharmacological activity tests as follows: (1) MTT assay to test the RAW264.7 cell (murine monocyte/macrophage cell line) viability; (2) Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and activity analysis to investigate the cell differentiation activity; (3) The activity test of bone resorption (Pit formation assay). By these testes, the biphenyl benzamide-derived derivatives containing pharmaceutical composition, which comprises the formula I compound, were proved to perform effects of inhibition on osteoclastogenesis.

The synthesized difunisal derivatives, compounds 1 to 24, were pharmacologically tested to be identified the relationship between their structure and activity. Cell viability was measured by MTT assay in RAW 264.7 cells upon treatment with compounds at 5 μM. CC₅₀ is the cytotoxic concentration that produces 50% (CC₅₀) cell death. As shown in Table 3, the cell viability was more than 90% upon treatment with compounds at 5 μM. The multinucleated osteoclasts could be formed by RANKL-induced macrophage cell line RAW267. RAW 264.7 cells were cultured with the indicated in the presence of drug and RANKL (100 ng/mL). Numbers of TRAP-positive (TRAP⁺) multinucleated cells (MNCs) were counted in the presence of RANKL to identify the relationship between osteoclast and bone formation. To avoid the effect of cell viability, the concentration of synthesized compounds was 5 μM, and the result was showed in Table 4. Some of the derivatives perform more than 50% inhibitory activity on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation, wherein the compound 4, compound 9, compound 16 and compound 18 perform 67.32±4.38%, 71.32±3.39%, 86.84±1.74% and 62.92±2.65% inhibitory activity of TRAP-positive (TRAP⁺) multinucleated cells (MNCs) formation. The compound 16 performed the best inhibitory effect in the TRAP staining. The compound 16 was a derivate from compound 4 and its structure was related to compound 4. Therefore, the compound 4 and 16 were performed by TRAP assay to evaluate the effect on osteoclast differentiation by different concentration of compounds. As shown in FIG. 1A, compound 4 and 16 performed TRAP inhibitory activity, the IC₅₀ were 3.89 μM and <2.5 μM, respectively. According to above result, it can be speculated that: (1) Due to different substitutes on benzene ring of difunisal, the inhibitory ability of RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation would be different. (2) Due to the electron-withdrawing group substitutes of R₁ and R₄ on benzene ring, or electron-withdrawing group substitutes derivatives of R2 on benzene ring, such as compound 4. (R₁═F and R₄═F), compound 6 (R₂═CF₃), compound 9 (R₂═CN) and compound 16 (R₁═F and R₄═F), (3) compound 4 (R₁═F and R₄═F) and compound 6 (R₂═CF₃), a cyclic derivate compound 16 (R₁═F and R₄═F) and compound 18 (R₂═CF₃), the inhibitory activity would be stronger. FIG. 2 showed the effect on RAW264.7 cell differentiation by compound 4 and 16 with or without the presence of RANKL.

EXAMPLE 26 Effect on Inhibition Resorption of Osteoclast by Compounds 1˜24

By using pit formation assay, compounds 4 and 16 have effect on inhibition of resorption of osteoclast. RAW264.7 cells were cultured without compounds (compound 4 or compound 16, 5 μM) or treated with compounds (compound 4 or compound 16, 5 μM) in 24 well dentine slices plates in the presence of RANKL after 4 days, to identify the ability of resorption of osteoclast by observing the resorption pits formation. As shown in FIG. 1B, compared to the cell cultured without drug in the presence of RNAKL, the resorbed area of the cell cultured in compound 4 or 16 was only 23.11±2.25% and 20.11±1.51% respectively. It was obvious that compound 4 or 16 could inhibit the RANKL-induced resorption of osteoclast (FIG. 3A to D).

EXAMPLE 27 The Anti-Inflammatory Pharmaceutical Application of Compounds 1˜24 in the Present Invention

The synthesized 24 biphenyl benzamide-derived derivatives drug, compounds 1 to 24, can be used as anti-osteoporosis agent, also can be a potential anti-inflammatory agent. After modified, most of the compounds performed stronger anti-inflammatory effect than difunisal of original NSAID (Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs).

Isolation and Culture of Porcine Chondrocytes

Porcine cartilage was obtained from the hind leg joints of pigs. The synthesis of chondrocytes from cartilage was performed according to our previous report. After enzymatic digestion of articular cartilage with 2 mg/mL protease in serum-free Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM)/antibiotics, the specimens were then digested overnight with 2 mg/mL collagenase I and 0.9 mg/ml, hyaluronidase in DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). The cells were collected, passed through a cell strainer (Becton Dickinson, Mountain View, Calif., USA), and cultured in DMEM containing 10% PBS and antibiotics for 3-4 days before use.

Cytotoxicity Assay by Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Leakage

The measurement of the concentrations of the released lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), as an indicator of damage to the plasma membrane, was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions (Roche, Indianapolis, Ind., USA). The percent cytotoxicity was calculated as ([sample value−medium control]/[high control−medium control])×100. Individual sample values were the averages of the absorbance values in treated culture supernatants after subtraction of the absorbance values in background control in triplicate. Similarly, the average absorbance values of untreated cell culture supernatants, used as the medium control, were calculated. Equal amount of cells treated with 1% Triton X-100 was taken as the high control.

Measurement of NO Concentrations

The measurement of NO release was reflected by determination of its stable end product, nitrite, in supernatants. The Griess reaction was performed with the concentrations of nitrite measured by a spectrophotometer. In brief, an aliquot (100 μL) of culture supernatant was incubated with 50 μL of 0.1% sulfanilamide in 5% phosphoric acid and 50 μL of 0.1% N-1-naphthyl-ethylenediamine dihydrochloride. After 10 min of incubation at room temperature, the absorbance was measured at 550 nm wavelength with a plate reader (recall, Grodig, Australia). The result was showed in Table 5 and FIG. 4. By viewing the IC₅₀ values of synthesized compounds on NO production, the compound 18 (IC50=0.55) performed best effect on inflammatory factor—NO inhibition.
